In order to achieve an organizational culture, there are different management techniques. Participatory management is just one of these several management techniques. Participatory management can help decentralize and share management responsibilities. It allows for a multidisciplinary process. The entire team is brought in to collaborate and integrate new ideas. The distribution of authority and power is dispersed among group members. This allows for effect criticism and construction from group members.

This article presents a study whose purpose is to understand the impacts of participative decision-making and information-sharing activities and how it affects employee attitudes and well-being. The study was performed using the data taken from the 2009 National Centre for Partnership and Performance survey on employees’ attitudes and expectations of the workplace. Structural equation modelling was used to test the direct effects of participative decision-making and information sharing on job satisfaction, organizational commitment and job strain, and simultaneously, the mediating role of work intensification in these relationships was examined. The study found that participative decision-making activities produced overall favourable effects on employee attitudes and well-being; these effects may be explained by decreases in work intensification. The impacts of information sharing on employee attitudes and well-being were generally unfavourable and fully mediated by increases in work intensification. This is important because it displays that participatory workplace activities produce favourable effects among employees attitudes.

This article reflects on education practices as a tool for Participatory Management and on its implication for nursing care in primary health care. The reflective analysis is drawn from the principles and guidelines of the Unified Health SYstem and educational practices in participatory management. Social control has been the focus of attention in different spaces of construction of the Unified Health System. It is a strategy to democratize power, a channel of claim for social participation, becoming a tool to enable participative management. Social participation in councils is still fragile, which indicates the need for emancipatory educational practices that empower council members and make them active subjects in the process, with implications for nursing care. This article is important because it describes the need for participatory management in order to give employees more of a voice and a better working environment.
